Murfreesboro Little Theatre's MY FAIR LADY
My Fair Lady is a classic story, told with an incredibly rich and memorable score, filled with laughs, tears and ---at long last --- love! Opening on Broadway in 1956, it is still today considered to the greatest musical of all time!
Based on George Bernard Shaw's play Pygmalion (which itself is based upon Greek mythological figure Pygmalion), authors and lyricist Alan Jay Lerner and composer Frederick Lowe crafted this record-breaking hit, revolving around poor cockney Eliza Doolittle, a feisty flower girl, and egotistical Professor Henry Higgins, who wagers that he can pass her off as a lady in six months, because all that separates the social classes just happens to be his specialty - speech!
Along for the ride are Higgins' fellow phoneticist (and bet maker) Colonel Pickering; Eliza's frequently inebriated dustman father, Alfred P. Doolittle; and impetuous Freddy Eynsford-Hill, a young aristocrat who falls head-over-heels for Higgins' creation.
Directed by theatre veteran Melvin C. Spring, with musical direction and accompaniment by MLT President Charlie Parker, this is a Do-Not- Miss production, with some of Broadway's most recognizable tunes and an outstanding cast.
Andy Ford stars as Henry Higgins, and making her MLT s debut, Mary Hutches ignites the stage as Eliza Doolittle, and choreographer. My Fair Lady features Perry Poston as Colonel Pickering, Zach Kelley as Freddy, Rob DeHoff as Alfred P. Doolittle, Rae Ellyn Kelley as Mrs. Eynford-Hill, Janice Denson as Mrs. Pearce, Heather Gardner as Mrs. Higgins, Steven Luster as Harry, and Jacob Kight as Jamie. Rounding out the cast are Alyssa Brangenburg, Alex DeHoff, Aylee Gardner, and Raeley Underwood. Supporting actors play numerous roles, keeping the spirit of the show alive, and the music flowing!
